Chapter 135: The Past and Present Cannot be Compared

“I’ll listen to you.” Ling Yixue retreated to one side.

“Good! That’s good!”

Lin Ze sighed at Ling Yixue. “So young, but actually having such strength. If you join my Side General Residence, that would truly be my, Lin Ze’s, good fortune.”

“The General is flattering me. If my Junior Apprentice Brother joins, I will too.”

Ling Yixue said indifferently.

At this moment, everyone focused on Ling Xiao with jealousy, admiration and envy.

Ling Yixue was like a fairy but she actually obediently listened to him. Wasn’t that admirable?

Among the crowd was also a pair of vicious eyes.

Naturally, they belonged to Ling Feifan.

In fact, he and Ling Xiao didn’t have any deep hatred, but he had once pursued Ling Yixue with all his heart. Now, seeing Ling Yixue’s attitude towards Ling Xiao, how could he not feel anything?

He was very angry as if he were going to explode.

He gritted his teeth and touched the Dream Pill in his pocket.

This was a special Dream Pill he had received from a person of the Ren Race and would make a martial artist temporarily enter a berserk state.

To increase his strength, he was not afraid of pain, but he would lose his rationality after using it, so he had avoided using it.

However, he now planned to use it.

If Ling Xiao passed Lin Ze’s assessment, he would defeat Ling Xiao afterward, making Ling Xiao completely lose all face.

He slowly got up from the ground and retreated into the crowd since he didn’t want Ling Xiao or Ling Yixue to notice him.

“This little brother: are you her Junior Apprentice Brother?”

Lin Ze asked with a smile.

“This junior greets General Lin. I have often heard of your prestige. It’s truly my good fortune to witness it today.”

Ling Xiao didn’t know how to flatter others; he only spoke facts.

Nevertheless, Lin Ze was qualified for him to say such things.

In fact, regardless of Lin Ze’s strength, he was a person Ling Xiao greatly admired.

“Have you seen this general before?”

Ling Ze didn’t like flatterers, so his initial impression of Ling Xiao was a bit bad.

“General might not remember, but many years ago, a little beggar was nearly run over by a wild carriage on the streets of Heavenly Peak City. Thanks to your action of directly hurling that carriage to one side, that little beggar’s life was saved.”

Ling Xiao didn’t know Lin Ze’s thoughts, simply expressing his excitement.

“That little beggar couldn’t have been you, right?” Lin Ze asked in surprise.

“It was this junior!”

Ling Xiao said with some pride. “Since that day, this junior dreamt of following General Lin on the battlefield to resist the alien races. Today, I will finally get my opportunity.”

“Are you confident enough to withstand a hundred moves from Lin Che?” Lin Ze was surprised. This youth’s aura was no more than Peak Rank Five Martial Vein, so where did his confidence come from? Could it be that he was another pretentious junior?

This was mainly the fault of Ling Xiao’s template realm being too good. Even a great expert like Lin Ze couldn’t see through it.

“That’s not the case.”

Ling Xiao shook his head with a smile.

“Little brother, do you want to enter the Side General Residence with your Senior Apprentice Sister? In any case, since your Senior Apprentice Sister is such a talented person, I can make an exception for her.”

Lin Ze was not a stubborn old man.

If Ling Yixue could be taken into Side General Residence, what did adding one Ling Xiao matter?

“I’ll kill you!”

Just when Ling Xiao was about to reply, Wan Renwang freed himself from the ice and furiously yelled at Ling Yixue.

“General, you seem to have misunderstood what I meant. What I meant was that like Senior Apprentice Sister, I don’t want to fight Brother Lin Chen, I just want to teach Wan Renwang a lesson, lest he say that there is no one talented in our Heavenly Peak City.”

Ling Xiao seized this chance to say.

Lin Ze was surprised at Ling Xiao’s words.

He could accept Ling Yixue being able to defeat Wan Renwang. After all, from the second she had jumped onto the stage, he could tell that this young lady was indeed powerful.

But Ling Xiao…

Honestly speaking, he didn’t see anything special about him.

“Little brother, before doing anything, you must weigh your ability and act accordingly.”

Lin Ze made a wry smile, thinking that Ling Xiao was too ambitious.

“General Lin, Junior Apprentice Brother is not any weaker than I.”

Ling Yixue opened her mouth.

“Oh?”

Lin Ze couldn’t help raising his eyebrows in surprise.

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

There was no reason for Ling Yixue to lie.

“Fine, but you have yet to tell us your name.”

“This junior’s name is Ling Xiao!”

“Ah! He is Ling Xiao!”

“Is he that Ling Xiao who defeated Li Xinghui?”

“I have heard of him, but I have never seen him. I never expected him to be so young.”

“It can’t be wrong. I have previously seen him with my own eyes. His <Nine Transformation Golden Body Art> and <Duplicate Shadow Sword Technique> are very terrifying.”

After Ling Xiao revealed his name, the audience finally confirmed his identity.

Although some people had thought that he resembled Ling Xiao before, they hadn’t dared to voice their thoughts with certainty. 

“So, you are Ling Xiao, the leader of the four noble sons of Heavenly Peak City? Good, then I will kill you first before dealing with that woman.”

Wan Renwang was excited upon hearing Ling Xiao’s name.

“Hehe, since both of you are willing to compete, let’s give it a go.”

Lin Ze smiled. His view of Ling Xiao had completely changed.

If Ling Xiao’s calmness was not a deliberate act, this young man would definitely be very terrifying.

Even when facing a Peak Rank Nine Martial Vein martial artist, he had no cowardness or fear. 

Just his character alone surpassed many people.

Including the many outstanding talents in the Side General Residence, most martial artists were far worse than this child.

In the ring, Ling Xiao and Wan Renwang stood face to face.

“Did you say that there is no one in Heavenly Peak City who can challenge you?”

Ling Xiao asked.

“That’s right!”

Wan Renwang replied.

“Did you say that the martial artists of Heavenly Peak City were all trash?”

“That’s right! I said that too!”

“Then, what about you losing against Senior Apprentice Sister Yixue?”

Ling Xiao coldly asked.

“That was just an accident. I underestimated my enemy and didn’t use my real skills.”

Wan Renwang haughtily replied.

“You are truly shameless. When the martial artists of our Heavenly Peak City lose, they are trash, but when you lose, it’s underestimating the enemy?”

Ling Xiao sneered. “Fine, I will give you a chance to use your true skills, but what if you lose to me again?”

“Lose to you? Impossible?”

Wan Renwang laughed.

“Still, what if you lose?”

“If I lose by chance, I’ll publicly apologize to all the martial artists in Heavenly Peak City!”

Wan Renwang was truly confident.

“Okay, I hope that you will not go back on your words.”

Ling Xiao smiled before opening some distance between them.

Barbarian Bull Strength!

Ling Xiao didn’t even use an advanced martial art against Wan Renwang, only using a common basic martial art!

Looking down on me?

Wan Renwang was furious!

The audience was dumbfounded. They had never thought that Ling Xiao would actually underestimate his enemy.

However, was Ling Xiao truly underestimating the enemy?

Not at all!

He had already cultivated Barbarian Bull Strength to sublimity!

Its power was comparable to the great success realm of advanced martial arts!

Coupled with <Bull Demon Technique>, the power of this basic martial art was comparable to a perfection realm advanced martial art!

This was not the scariest point.

The most terrifying aspect was that Ling Xiao had comprehended how to use soul power from A Terrifying Finger, which he had applied to this sublimity realm Barbarian Bull Strength.

Originally, Barbarian Bull Strength had been a martial art without any fixed moves.

After this transformation, although its power was still not comparable to A Terrifying Finger, it was not any inferior to an Entry-level Peak Martial Art.
